Energy Communities: A Significant Factor to alleviate Energy Poverty
(Corresponding) Lamprousis G., Golfinopoulos S.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
At the end of the 20th century, one of the phenomena that affect humanity on a social, economic, political, and environmental level is the energy poverty, a concept that is still misunderstood. It is a distinct form of poverty associated with a range of adverse effects for people’s health and...Read more

Increasing the recovery of automobile shredder residue (ASR) through assimilation to a solid recovered fuel (SRF): the results of a feasibility study
(Corresponding) Ruffino B., Minardi M., Guglielmino M., Bonino F., Zanetti M.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
This study analyzes the possibility of assimilating some fractions extracted from the shredder light fraction (SLF) to a solid recovered fuel (SRF). Italian Ministerial Decree D.M. 22/2013 fixes the criteria for the assimilation in the compliance of three parameters (heating value and chlorine and...Read more

The role of biomass and biowaste in the green energy transition of islands and an introduction to the μgas-to-grid concept
(Corresponding) Vakalis S., Fountoulakis M.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
The green transition of the energy sector in islands has always been a challenging task. The connectivity of islands with the (mainland) central grid can be problematic, especially when the distance is significant. In such cases, isolated electrical grids need to be developed on the islands, and...Read more

Assessing the Utilization of Fuels Cells for the Valorization of Produced Excess Energy in Isolated Grids – The Green Transition of Agios Efstratios
(Corresponding) Dimou A., Vakalis S.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
The island of Agios Efstratios is a unique case, since a pilot green energy transition program is taking place. Wind and solar photovoltaic technologies have seen tremendous growth during the past decade and various policy measures have been introduced in support of their growth. For the cases of...Read more

(Corresponding) Alonso M., Alosno R., Espinazo A., Lombraña J., Izcara J., Izagirre J.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
In this work, binary and ternary gas mixtures of 1,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene, HFO-1234ze(E), and perfluoro-3-methylbutan-2-one, CF3C(O)CF(CF3)2, with CO2 and synthetic air, are presented as alternatives to SF6 in medium voltage electrical equipment. They were used in four medium voltage switchgear...Read more
Feasibility of coupling hydrogen and methane production during sewage sludge digestion
Ellacuriaga M., Aguilar-Pesantes A., (Corresponding) Gómez X.
Topic:
Energy technologies and sustainability
Anaerobic digestion is a technology widely used for the stabilisation of sewage sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). This technology presents several advantages such as the production of energy and the use of this energy to cover the demand of the treatment plant. However, sludge digestion...Read more
